I remember. <\/p>\n<p>The deletion wars were where a Group of People would as a group send requests to Myspace TOS compliance with a complaint about an account. Myspace which was IMPERSONAL and mostly automated would delete accounts based on Number of Complaints.<\/p>\n<p>So a group of 10 or so people with a strong Leader would send complaints to myspace and have an account deleted. <\/p>\n<p>This was the beginning of the Death of Myspace.<\/p>\n<p>Blogs would disappear. Accounts would pop up and disappear. Some could rarely have an account for more than a day.<\/p>\n<p>Friendburst was born because of this.<\/p>\n<p>I believe that Friendburst researches each TOS personally. The Friendburst staff researces each incident of TOS from all sides. <\/p>\n<p>I believe the Friendburst staff does not delete any account based on the complaints of any group of individuals without researching that TOS violations have actually occurred.<\/p>\n<p>I am very disappointed that some on Friendburst have made Unsupported Accusations about how TOS is applied. I think Kevin has stated very well how they will research each violation from all sides.<\/p>\n<p>The Friendburst staff is in a difficult situation. They would like all members to enjoy their experience here and recommend this site to friends. This does not mean we all have to be civil with each other or even interact with each other. There are tools available on this site to not interact with people that are rude, obnoxious, or you just do not want to talk with.  Also they want to protect their members from Cyberbullying. <\/p>\n<p>If you are trolling or not engaged in a conversation, do not be surprised that someone blocks you. If you choose to block entire groups of individuals based on ideology, you can. <\/p>\n<p>Note: I do not have any official capacity with the Friendburst staff, or much interaction. The above is my personal understanding of how TOS is applied. The TOS policy is clearly stated and Kevin has done several bulletins which I have paraphrased.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Someone once said those that forget history are doomed to repeat it.
